Posting Bitwarden Review Comments
GitHub Comment Posting Protocol
- MUST Analyze all changes before posting anything
- MUST Use inline comments for code-specific findings
- MUST Use the Bitwarden finding format
- FORBIDDEN: Do NOT add "Strengths", "Highlights", or positive observations sections.
- FORBIDDEN Do NOT post praise-only inline comments
- FORBIDDEN: Do NOT post PR metadata issues (title, description, test plan) as inline comments. These go in the summary only.
Finding Format
CRITICAL: Never use # followed by numbers - GitHub will autolink it to unrelated issues/PRs.
- Writing "#1" creates a clickable link to issue/PR #1 (not your finding)
- "Issue" is also wrong terminology (use "Finding")
- Use "Finding" + space + number (no # symbol); aim for under 30 words in sentence
CORRECT FORMAT:
- Finding 1: Memory leak detected
- Finding 2: Missing error handling
WRONG (DO NOT USE):
- ❌ Issue #1 (wrong term + autolink)
- ❌ #1 (autolink only)
- ❌ Issue 1 (wrong term only)
Inline Comments
Every inline comment MUST:
- Reference specific line(s)
- State the problem - what breaks or what's the risk?
- Provide actionable fix (for ❌ and ⚠️)
- Be brief yet clear
- Use collapsed sections for comments over 5 lines
- Include both opening
<details>AND closing</details>tags
Visibility Rule: Only severity + one-line description visible; everything else inside <details> tags.
Template for long comments
[emoji] **[SEVERITY]**: [One-line issue description]
<details>
<summary>Details and fix</summary>
[Code example or specific fix]
[Rationale explaining why]
Reference: [docs link if applicable]
</details>Summary Output
